Direct Deposit Payroll report in QuickBooks Desktop

Why is the Direct deposit Payroll Confirmation Report in QuickBooks Desktop showing lists of the printed checks?  I have people asking and have no idea as this never happened before.

I have a client that only uses DD to pay my small vendor bill and now all of their employees are on the report, with zero checks, and only my one direct deposit.

Is this some kind of new tracking?

This happens when you send the DD checks at the end of creating paychecks and then you print them and give them check numbers. Adding the check number is a change to the check, and changes are sent the next time you connect to send DD orders.  Avoid this by printing checks first, then sending them.

I thought my client had already printed the checks, actually fairly sure of it, now that I check back.

This never used to happen, and I will double check next time, to confirm this.

Thank you anyway for the courtesy of such a fast response.

So, I should still run the Send/Receive data with no worries on the printed checks, it will just sort itself out?  I have the same issue, I just signed up for DD and now when I run the Send/Receive Data it wants to send 1100 checks, but there is only one direct deposit.

Yes, you’re correct, @DGentle.

 

You can send and receive data as QuickBooks would normally do or process to all users. Since you mentioned that you’re new to Direct Deposit, this explains why the application shows several checks upon running the data. The application will sync the data you have prior to activating your direct deposit to our system.

 

Moreover, make sure to update your QBDT to the latest release including your tax table to have the up-to-date so you have the latest features and product improvements. Also, getting the newest tax table provides up-to-date, accurate rates and calculations for federal and supported state taxes, payroll tax forms, and e-file and e-pay options.

 

The steps below will guide you in updating your tax table:

 

  1. Go to the Employees menu and select Get Payroll Updates.
  2. Select Download Entire Update.
  3. Tap Update. When the download is complete, an informational window will appear.

 

You can also check out this article to know your current tax table version. Please refer to Check or download the latest tax table under the To Know Your Tax Table Version bullet: Get the latest tax table update in QuickBooks Desktop Payroll.

 

On the other hand, I’ll add an article here that you can refer to in case you receive any payroll connection error:

Thanks for the detailed response.  I was a little worried I was sending tens of thousands of dollars out in the world.  It took a while to process the first run, but all worked out as planned.  Thanks again.
